Vāraṇāvata-prasaṃsā and the Pāṇḍavas’ Departure (वरणावत-प्रशंसा तथा पाण्डव-प्रयाणम्)
स मां निराकारमिव प्रहसन्निदमब्रवीत् | अकृतेयं तव प्रज्ञा ब्रह्मनू नातिसमञज्जसा,परंतु द्रपदने मुझे नीच मनुष्यके समान समझकर उपहास करते हुए इस प्रकार कहा --ब्राह्मण! तुम्हारी बुद्धि अत्यन्त असंगत एवं अशुद्ध है
sa māṁ nirākāram iva prahasann idam abravīt | akṛteyaṁ tava prajñā brahmanū nātisamañjasā ||
然而德鲁帕达带着轻蔑的笑意，仿佛我毫无身份一般，对我说道：“婆罗门啊，你的见识粗陋不成形——全然不合情理，也不相称。”此句传达出蔑视之意，并揭示一种伦理过失：以嘲弄否定他人的辨识，而非以尊重回应其言。
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse highlights an ethical lapse: ridiculing someone and attacking their discernment (“your prajñā is ill-formed”) instead of responding with respectful, reasoned speech. It implicitly contrasts proper dialogue (samyak-vāk) with contemptuous dismissal.
In Vaiśampāyana’s narration, a speaker responds to the narrator/other party with derisive laughter, treating him as insignificant, and declares that the brāhmaṇa’s judgment is incoherent and improperly formed—setting a tone of insult and conflict in the exchange.
